Understanding Nature Without Models? - Dr. Gopi Vijaya, DemystifyPod #257

Dr. Gopi Vijaya began his scientific career in solar physics but
quickly branched out into fields as diverse as projective
geometry, Goethean Science, foundations of astronomy, calculus,
and the Reciprocal System of physics. Our conversation begins
with the relationship between science and technology and moves
into the philosophical realm asking seemingly bizarre questions
like - can we do science without models? Also - how do we
collaborate as thinkers without competing? Along the way we
explore outstanding anomalies in light, electromagnetism, gravity
and color theory. It's a wild ride through many of our favorite
topics here. Let us know your thoughts in the comments! Sign up

science 00:26:02 Can we understand without models? 00:31:20 How
to understand Gravity without a model 00:39:30 Throwing mass into
the mix 00:48:45 A sea of measurements, but what is measured?

https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S PODCAST INFO: Anastasia completed her PhD
studying bioelectricity at Columbia University. When not talking
to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time
painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also
did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of
molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring
sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various
universities. - Blog: http://DemystifySci.com/blog - RSS:
